Typo in spanish

4
votes

I was going to send a message in spanish that contained an attachment of something that I had put together on some irregular spanish verbs. I was going to say that I hoped that there were not many typos in this doc. (There should not be since I had the spanish dictionary proofing turned on.) Made me wonder what word is used in spanish speaking countries for "typo". My guess is that it is "typo" but I would appreciate some feedback on this. I would not want to use a term as formal as "errata" which harkens back to the typography days of movable (generally metallic for the last couple of centuries) type.
